EV10: Day 51: Bråvikenbrantens Naturreservat to Valdemarsvik

The day after the rain went much better. We had a complete day of sunshine, were able to dry all of our clothes on our bicycles, and we had a nice ride through beautiful scenery. Made around 100 km that day. There are so, so many hills — it’s a constant rollercoaster.

We slept at a shelter on a lake. We only realized after putting up our tent inside that there was a wasp nest — and then we realized that there was a hornet’s nest on the toilet. But they didn’t care about us and left us alone, so we had a nice and quiet night anyway.

Overnight stay

We slept in a nice shelter somewhere here. It isn’t listed anymore now. When we got there, the way to the shelter was fenced off with a live electrical wire, and there were cow droppings everywhere. So at first we didn’t dare to stay there for the night, and headed for the next shelter we could locate. On the way there, I started talking to a local. She said that the shelter site had been abused as a party location and had therefore been fenced off — and that she thought we should be fine to stay there for the night. So we returned, had a swim from the pier and a restful, quiet night.
